If this guy was to ever buy the rights to any of the gadgets he's reviewed and sold them with the modified improvements he showed in the video I would search the world to purchase it
I would like to see how a hand crank nut cracker designed like a rock crusher would work.
A pair of corrugated jaws, one vertical and stationary, the other curved and on connected off axis to the axel on a cam so it moved forward and down as you cranked.
Deez nuts!
Had to leave it. I am sorry world
Don't you fools know that it's No Nut November
Deez nuts
Grandma, had a Nut Chopper and as children we would use it to help make banana bread, and cookies. Loved the damn thing. always worked.
I'm curious if the product makers actually watch these videos and change the product. If so how much more efficient is it.
What i learnt from this video: Cast Iron skillet is the best nut cracker
He failed NNN
Lots of nut shots in this video… what?
It took me watching every video in this playlist up to this point over the course of a few months to connect that the DESIGN experts name is Dan FORMosa
The squirrel should hold the other tool
I don’t know why but I think Dan would be a really good grandpa/uncle
well can you crack on deez nutz
Isn't the dome nutcracker just a base for using a hammer to crack nuts?
I SAVE DIK BY GIVING CPR YESS – cupcakke
I thought we were in no nut november
disappointed that there were none of those little christmas men
7:31 Love that part. This is so cute. Dan Formosa is very creative on certain cute kitchen gadgets.
Nooooo noo no no nooooo. If you need a nut cracker I have three words. Channel. Lock. Pliers. A decent pair of channel locks have more than enough leverage for even relatively weak hands to use, and because you can adjust how far they are able to fully close, you will never ever pulverize the nuts you crack. You can set them to barely crack the shell before biting any deeper.

Screw action nutcrackers are the best you should've tried that
Yes give that huge cracking Maschine a curve. So they have to bend the 2mm short piece of steel which would increase the production cost only by 6 times or so.
If this thing now costs under 80$ it’s probably a bargain, but who would buy it at 200$?

It's difficult to crack an almond when you lay it flat, that's probably why the dome doesn't work for almonds. With the mallet you should hold the almond on it's edge to crack it. In my experience it should work better.
I actually own the last gadget and I love it
This guy is the "good ending" of the trumpet freakout gremlin
my favorite nut cracking gadget is the one the nut companies use when I buy ready to eat nuts…
I think they just going with tbe trend on November and Nuts
I don't even consider making dinner until my left hand is oiled up.
I’ve got something that’s basically the same thing as the nut chopper, except it’s from something like the ‘60s or ‘70s. I find it does the job just fine. After all, while companies with machines may make precisely sliced slivers of nuts, consistent sizes aren’t that easy to create at home, anyway—there’s almost always a batch of little bits that break from the walnuts or splinters breaking off from almonds.
The best part about it is that it chops the nuts and keeps everything contained. And this newer version seems to have the added benefit of emptying into a graduated container so you know how much you’ve chopped.
The fact that he performs so many "non dominant hand" tests removes the value of the non dominant hand test, doesn't it?
Now the real question, what is the best product for cleaning oil off of your left hand?
"Its purpose in life is to crack any nut with one big smash"
dude in my recommended 2021
As a designer, I Love Dan series.
Eren Jaeger should be the one testing these gadgets
dig the nut out of the squirl
Ngl,when he pulled out the cast iron skillet,I expected him to just slam down on the nut with full force.
Where's Porco Galliard?
He said for last one evenly chopped so can evenly chop any nut is same size and same weight with his bare hands
I felt like I kind of like this guy but he deliberately cheated the last one so blocked and banned from any further recommendations
You shouldn't crack nuts now, it's November!
this guy is the only reason why i watch this channel
3:25 When they're too hard to get.
A water pump plier works best for cracking walnuts
I'd like to see some of Dan's own inventions
I love the sentence…..; its purpose in life is……with the knowing that most of the produced crappy stuff ends up in a landfill in less than a week or disappears in a drawer and being thrown away sooner or later. What a miserable short lives…….
